Description
In Copenhagen and other Danish cities, intriguing elevated benches have been installed in various popular locations to raise awareness about climate change. With 85 centimetres more than normal benches, they symbolise the forecasted rise in sea levels by 2100. "In large parts of the country we will see flooding as an everyday occurence, so we try to illustrate that with the elevated bench to get people to talk about climate change," explains Kasper Adsbøll, a senior brand manager at television channel TV2, which initiated the project.
